Rhys to play legendary newspaper editor Sir Harry in BBC drama

Matthew Rhys

The Cardiff-born actor, best known for his roles in The Americans. The Beast In Me and Brothers & Sisters, will star in the six-part series Dragon Slayers.

The show will explore the work of Sir Harry, whose investigative Insight team broke some of the biggest stories in UK history, including the thalidomide scandal; the truth about Kim Philby, one of the most notorious spies of the 20th century; and the facts about the DC-10 crash in 1974, then the worst air disaster of all time.

Rhys, 51, said: “At a time when stories of this nature are imperative, I am thrilled to be a part of this show.”
